What is the actual size (dimensions) of this drill bit (hole saw). You list: "4.8 x 3 x 1.4 inches, but that is impossible, unless you mean the dimensions of the box it is sold in. This bit could not drill a 3/4 inch hole if it were 1.4 inches in...

Actually the chuck is the size of the drill bit your drill will hold. You open the chuck to change the drill bit. This drill will hold a 3/8" drill bit very easily. It comes with some bits. You can then purchase additional size bits that do not come with it.

Carol H., Thanks for asking my opinion. My DEWALT DWd520 I/2 inch drill only came in a small box, just big enough for the drill itself. If this is a gift for a male, tell him it has enough power to snap off a 1/2 inch DEWALT bit with a straight shank. Enjoy the drill !!

My husband measured the bit he will be using to drill the holes for my pulls, and he said it takes a 5/32 drill bit, or if you want the hole a little larger, use 11/64 bit size. Hope this helps!

The box is 4 5/8" square (not including the mounting tabs) by 1 3/4" thick. It works great. I think I'm going to buy another one as I use it on multiple tools in two places.

I don't think I would trust a one-pass hole beyond 1 3/4", especially the hoke saw. The throw length of the drill bit is, at it's best, about 1 7/8". If you don't mind turning the piece over and going at it from both sides, it'll work just fine.

If I recall correctly, it's 4 1/2". I use a hole saw of that size (pretty sure that size, bigger than you think it should be) but can be done with a saber saw.

I used my Black and Decker 18 Volt Lithium Ion cordless drill. I think it has a 3/8 inch bit, but I think this will even fit a 1/4 inch bit drill. You definitely do not need a commercial drill but you want something with a little bit of power as drilling in dirt with a dull large spiral blade is significantly different that drilling into wood with a highly sharpened bit.

Standard size 1/4 inch bits will not fit but you can purchase assortments of 1/8 inch "precision" bits that have hex heads and other assortments that may be suitable for your needs. search for "precision bits."

It's like a regular drill bit, will fit a 3/8 inch drill, but I wouldn't buy it unless you are drilling into loose soil. The shaft will strip and then just spin around in the drill.

This drill bit is HUGE! You need a 1/2" drill to use this thing. If i knew earlier, i wouldn't of purchased it. Now i'm stuck with it since return shipping costs as much as the drill bit.

Standard sizes from 1/4 up to 1/2 inch. 1/4, 9/32??? 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, 1/2 and obviously I'm missing one. It's smaller than the 1/4, maybe it's 3/16. I've almost never used that, or the 9/32.

It doesn't work with those sizes (2 1/8" and 2 3/4"), I had to buy different hole saws for those sizes. It is very disappointing.

Hi Joe, This unit uses a 1/4" shank and no bigger than a 1-3/8" diameter cutting bit.

11/16" (.6875) would be a nice size drill bit. They measure .655" actual dimension.

Mine came with a 1/4# and does not appear to be able to take the 1/2 inch or industrial bits. It is great for small projects but not larger or more commercialize work. I hope this helps.

Hi. I use several small wire twist bits, smallest is probably around a .041". I just checked and the chuck closes down to tight, so I expect it will securely hold even the smallest sizes. Only problem (if it could be considered a problem) is I need to snip off about 3/4" of the drill bit shank for the bit to fit as far up in the chuck as I need it to. The holes I drill are less than 1/4" deep so I need for most of the bit to fit up inside the chuck, but it's not a big deal to use a pair of stout diagonal pliers to cut them off. It's a cheaply made drill but has served the purpose to drill thousands of holes (in wood) since I've had it, and if it suddenly died I'd probably just buy another of the same. Hi.
